Mom Makes Peanut Butter Cake for Daughter’s Party, Uninvites Allergic Nephew
In Our relationship, there is somebody for who’s we have no feelings. We also don’t want to see his face at any cost. Most of the time children have different feelings for their cousins. There is a woman who shares her problem on Reddit’s AITA forum.
She writes “AITA for letting my daughter have a penutbutter cake when my nephew is allergic?” for a headline. And Then write, “So my daughter recently turned seven, and for our “family part” she asked for a penutbutter and chocolate cake. I agreed.
I let my sister know not to bring my nephew (3) because of his allergy. (It’s so bad that he can’t even be near/breathe in peanutbutter particles).” She continue to writing, “She asked if I would change the cake to be just chocolate so that my nephew could come. I said no, that it was my daughter’s cake and she can have peanutbutter if she wants. She called me unreasonable because my daughter could have had peanutbutter cake with her ‘friend party’ (she didn’t have cake with her friends, she just had pizza). She said that my daughter needs to learn to compromise for the sake of family. I told her that I would talk to my daughter, but not to expect a seven year old to choose her baby cousin over her favorite cake.”
“My conversation with my daughter played out just like I predicted, and when I told my sister, she called my daughter selfish and ungrateful. She said that I’m a bad parent because I “taught her to hate (nephew)”. She threatened that if my nephew wasn’t welcome, that neither she nor her husband would come either. I said that was fine, because she wasn’t welcome either.”
“I then reached out to my BIL to let him know what was going on and to tell him he was still welcome if he wanted to come. He thanked me, but said that he would stay home to support my sister. Her party came and went, and my sister is still being very distant and cold. This has me wondering if I was too harsh to her and my nephew, or too soft on my daughter. AITA?”
Sister lost all high ground when she started calling the seven year old selfish for wanting a birthday cake on her birthday.
After there a lot of users started commenting and started to give their opinion. “Sister lost all high ground when she started calling the seven year old selfish for wanting a birthday cake on her birthday.”
Another user commented, “Too add: if anyone is teaching OP’s daughter to ‘hate’ her cousin, it’s the sister. Forcing a young kid to give up their favorite cake on their birthday is an EXCELLENT way to sow resentment toward the person they’re doing it for.
NTA OP. You asked your daughter and respected her decision. You sound like a great mom.”

“I have A LOT of food allergies! The rules are: 1. The rest of the world does not have to accommodate me. People have a right to eat what they want. 2. I have a right to ask what is in the food and DEMAND to know if I can’t get a straight answer. 3. If I go to a dinner party and there is nothing there that is safe for me to eat I will fill up on bread and salad (or whatever) and I do not have to feel embarrassed nor should my host. The nephew is young but needs to learn fast.” Another commenter said this.
One user who give the best opinion, “There was another path here: have the cousin attend the party for an hour or two, then send him home and bring out the cake.”
